Nobody

I got a call late Saturday night from Yaya Helen asking me to open my laptop and search a video of a group of female celebrities from ASAP doing their own production number of the latest Korean pop hit, Nobody by the Wonder Girls.

I was so tired to open my laptop and ignored it totally until the other day; she called again and mentioned the video. I was already searching the said video but I chanced upon another version of the single.

This one is better, I forwarded the link to my sister, and she too was laughing so hard with the choreography and the editing of the video.

“Nobody, nobody but you!” The song has been stuck in my head!

Happy Square Root Day!

Today is 3/3/09 -- a rare kind of day where the day, and the month, are both the square root of the year.


It is only the 3rd Square Root Day of this millennium and only occurs nine times each century. According to various sources, it only happens when the numbers of the calendar align so that the month and day is each equal to the square root of the year as expressed in two-digit form. Check out the full article from CNN to read up on it!

The last such day was five years ago, February 2, 2004 (2/2/04). The next is seven years away, on April 4, 2016 (4/4/16).

Hooray to all the math-buffs!

Twenty Weeks

For the past six weeks, it has been a very interesting and intellectual phase for me. I gained further knowledge about business, relationships and I gained new friends. Why so?

I’m back to my alma mater and currently attending UP ISSI’s 89th Manager’s Course. The Manager’s Course is a 20-week program dubbed as a compressed, non-formal MBA geared to equip top and middle managers from various industries to enhance organization, marketing, production, financial and information management skills.

I also have been exposed to different ways of thinking. My classmates have been very open to share all of their thoughts about certain things. For my part, the experience is a delight. As if I’m back in college with countless readings, brainstorming and nosebleeds. Fifteen more weeks and it seems a bit too far yet time flies fast nowadays.

Anyhow, with the numerous readings, I am sure every Friday is a cram day! All the same, knowledge is power and with our technical and the necessary management skills, we will surely increase our assets as managers.

Oops, I need to start browsing for Saturday’s module. I wonder if we will have a good one this time?

A Great Historical Moment

Barack Obama was elected the nation's first black president Tuesday night in a historic triumph that overcame racial barriers as old as America itself.


A change was called for and, tonight, it came. Whether this is a good thing for the United States, no one knows. Yet, as some said earlier today, the air felt crisper, the sky brighter, the spirit of the community jointly lifted. Barack Obama will be sworn in as the 44th President on January 20, 2009.

Welcome, President Obama.
